Due October 2023 -Thread 2

[Needtobuildabridge]

Hi all,

We finished the last thread pretty quickly! Here's a new one 😊

Hi everyone! Just want to tentatively mark my place. Got my BFP over the weekend, I'm now 4+2 and due on the 29th October so will probably have another November baby. My son is 15 months now. I will probably be more active once I've had an early scan around 8 weeks, previous MMC so don't think I could hold out till 12 weeks! Congratulations to everyone so far, and I love seeing the scan pictures 🥰🥰

@NSx they were actually really good, got a positive at 10 dpo that was really clear and darker than FRER. For the price, I'd definitely recommend

@Summer022 I'm similar, booked an early scan for some reassurance because other than tiredness I'm not feeling bad, and that's easing rather than getting worse. But also had symptoms I don't think I'd realised were symptoms until reading on here, constipation, wind and vivid dreams. I wouldn't have associated these at all with pregnancy without mumsnet

Thank you

Thank you

The doctor’s put me on cyclizine tablets, feel a bit pathetic because I know everyone gets nausea and sickness but I just couldn’t cope with it being all day and night

@Bee1994 i work in a doctors surgery, this is very common so don’t be so hard on yourself ✨✨💕💕💕

Anyone started to get really aching legs? I feel like I've run 10 miles ..

@katherine123x Yes me - restless one too! I’m 6+3 and the nausea is literally all day for me only started around 4 days ago! X

@LWestYorks bless you! I'm 5+4. Nausea coming and going at the moment!

@PeopleAreToads ahh yes! Vivid dreams I had no idea could be a symptom until recently. I am definitely more the other way rather than constipated (if you know what I mean) so I don’t know if that’s also a symptom. How many weeks will you be when you go for your early scan?

@NSx thank you 💜 took a tablet and feel better already which is a relief!

@Needtobuildabridge they are just Poundland ones, I'm an obsessive tester so I stuck to the very cheap ones!
Just bought some FRER so I'll update in the morning xx

Got my dye stealer today! At 18dpo, somewhere between 4+4 and 5w.
Such relief and joy to see this, I should really stop peeing on sticks now....

@Summer022 I'm still the same as you, did another frer and it was a dye stealer.
Did a digi how many weeks and it said 1-2

When you guys say you're 4+3 etc is that from LMP or from ovulation/implantation

Technically I'm 16/17 dpo ish so 1-2 weeks is probs about right.

@katherine123x yes my legs are really
sore!

@Hankthehonk yaaaas! Mines very similar from this morning. Have you done a CB digi yet? That was a lump in throat moment for me this morning

@Chanteuse ahhhh it's agony. I can't get any relief. Even putting them up feels like it's making it worse 😂

Literally don’t care about work at all right now!

besides the horrendous cold I have and serious digestion issues, having to go in to work when I’m so distracted just seems so unfair 😂🙈

@Bee1994
Did you tell the doctors you were feeling sick? Are you being sick too?
I didn't know they could prescribe something to help. I am feeling sick all day and night and retching and gagging. Everyone at work has guessed. I don't know how people hide it when it's so intense! I also had to run out of class twice to be sick today!

@overgrowngrass
Spent the whole of half term lying in bed, feeling sick and pregnant. Totally resented going back to work today because I've quite enjoyed all the bed rest I had!

@katherine123x
Yes! My legs really hurt this evening and I have a horrendous headache. I think it's tiredness/ exhaustion making my legs ache but maybe it's another symptom!

@Bee1994 - I was put on those and the.n changed to a diff med after only 24 hours because no immediate effect. Did your doc say whether the relief should be immediate? My sickness feels a bit better today after a week of meds and I’m wondering if it’s the meds starting to build up in my system. I’m just over 7 weeks so wouldn’t have expected it to be getting better until a little later - that was certainly the case with my last pregnancy.

@VictoriaBlossom I did a digi last Tuesday and got 1-2 which was amazing! I have one more digi left to do tomorrow and hopefully see that 2-3. Then, I promise, I WILL stop peeing on sticks...
Congratulations!

@braxxen I don't know what it is but I'm not loving it! 😂😂 Selfishly makes me feel better some of you other ladies are feeling the same, makes me think it's a good pregnancy symptom!

@VictoriaBlossom And I'm kind of saying I'm between 4+4 and 5w because I'm really not sure. Both estimates based on LMP - Flo is saying 5 weeks today but I think that is based on average cycles and I know mine are always 30/31 days. So I'm taking a few days off for good measure!
